The Morning After

WARNING: CONTENT CONTAINS MY POLITICAL THOUGHTS- READ IF YOU WANT...

I had hoped it was a bad dream. I was going to wake up and it had just been a dream. I switched on the news and realized much to my dismay that it had not been a dream. Damn...
Like I have said in blogs past, I have tread lightly with politics because it is in bad taste to get into heated political debates with clients. I am thankful now that I am not a work as I would not be very good company today.
Bob and I have been McCain supporters for over 8 years now so this is a blow. I am not surprised by the outcome but in an election, you never know, just look at the 2000 election.
I am going to stay away from the T.V. today. I need time to sort it all out, and I am not using my blog as my political soap box, there are plenty of others who do that just fine and I am sure they are easily found with the Google Search... I am just going to observe intently the alleged "change" that is so miraculously going to take place and see what happens.
Don't misunderstand me. When I first saw Obama on Oprah a few years ago, I really liked the man. I thought he had a great little family and that his non partisan ideas were new and fresh. It was when he made it public that he would run for President that I saw the change. I do get the significance of how historical this win for him was too and that is great. He just became like every other politician. That did nothing for me... So, I voted, I have the right to bitch, just like everyone else has for the last few years about President Bush. I do hope my complaining only lasts for a short time and the President-Elect makes good on his "Change" platform and that in a year or two when I post on my blog I will post with a good report. He is our president now and I will pray for him and his family. I am sure that Senator McCain is wanting to have a rest for a bit, as is his wife and family, he is probably glad it is over and he can be proud of himself and his campaign. I will always be grateful to him for serving our country and loving our country.
I wont comment anymore, I am done, I vented and that is good. I will enjoy the brief sunshine that peaks in and out today. I will try to not strangle my youngest daughter who has ONCE again forgotten her flute for school band. I will finish up my laundry and I will be thankful that I live in a great country that allows people the right to vote and the right to speak out.
